My ancestor at the age of 22 sailed from Plymouth for Canterbury Province, New Zealand, leaving on 22 May 1874, arriving in Lyttelton NZ on 3 August 1874 - the only person from the Isle of Man on the vessel.
I often wondered how she would get from the IOM to Plymouth on her own, as it must have been quite a journey for someone who had never before left a small island.
